    Abstract: A multi-layer circuit substrate and method having improved transmission line integrity and increased routing density uses a selectively applied transmission line reference plane metal layer to achieve signal path shielding and isolation, while avoiding drops in impedance due to capacitance between large diameter vias and the transmission line reference plane metal layer. The transmission line reference plane defines voids above (or below) the signal-bearing plated-through holes (PTHs) that pass through a rigid substrate core, so that the signals are not degraded by an impedance mismatch that would otherwise be caused by shunt capacitance from the top (or bottom) of the signal-bearing PTHs to the transmission line reference plane. For voltage-plane bearing PTHs, no voids are introduced, so that signal path conductors can be routed above or adjacent to the voltage-plane bearing PTHs, with the transmission line reference plane preventing shunt capacitance between the signal path conductors and the PTHs.

    Abstract: A method for designing a power distribution system including: receiving a cross section file that contains the layout of a PCB including a location of one or more power sinks and sources on the PCB; creating an initial power distribution system; evaluating the initial power distribution system against a cost function; creating a new power distribution system; evaluating the new power distribution system against the cost function; determining if the cost function associated with the new power distribution system is equal to or greater than a stop criterion; and creating another new power distribution system if the cost function associated with the new power distribution system is greater than the stop criterion.
